About me

Hello! My name is Kyle Ledin, and I am from Des Moines, Iowa. In 2021, I earned my AAS in Animation and Rich Media from a community college, where I had the pleasure of collaborating on a variety of exciting projects. I found great satisfaction in contributing to larger initiatives and watching them come to life, but I still felt there was more to learn.

That's when I discovered Turing, and it became clear to me that software development was the perfect field to apply my communication and problem-solving skills. I'm passionate about expressing innovative ideas and working collaboratively to achieve ambitious goals. I'm confident that my experience in animation and rich media, coupled with my enthusiasm for software development, make me a valuable asset to any potential employer.

Our talented backend and frontend cohorts have joined forces to create a user-friendly application that simplifies the process of finding and reviewing campgrounds in national parks. With our app, users can easily search for and explore various campsites across the country, adding their favorite ones to a personalized list for future reference.

One of the app's standout features is the ability for users to share their experiences by posting detailed and helpful reviews of the campsites they've visited. Additionally, users can even include photos in their reviews, which are stored securely in AWS S3 for convenient access and sharing.
